This book is about the planet of Krikkit. After being sent back into time, Arthur and Ford travel long distances to find the four keys to unlock a violent race before their benefactors can. This race is said to hold a bomb which can anhilate the entire universe. Trillian and Zaphod had also went back in time and they weren't about to let them complete the puzzle ethier.

I can connect to the world how wars destory people. Even though these wars do not wipe out the entire population of the world they are similar in their thinking. In the book though the people of Krikkit did it not for honor, fame or money it was because of their beliefs. This is also something like on Earth.

I give this book a four out of five even though the plot was well traveled and changes settings very well, the ending was again very confusing as of all Douglas Adams books. That is what makes him different from the others and the deeper meaning is needed to be read to understand what Douglas humor is about.
